I think that's what it does--- doesn't it? I'm not sure, I've never used it, but from the little I've seem it does most everything on the authoring side that I'd expect of a CMS. Of course, again, there's no hard and fast definition. We use StoryServer at the office... but the only interface to change pages is a simple WYSIWYG IE editing control. However the engine itself does manage the content - caching, timed deploys, workflow, etc. It's just that actual creation of the content is cutting edge for 1998. They call it CMS but it pales next to anything I'd call a CMS. ;^) Jim Davis ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Discover CFTicket - The leading ColdFusion Help Desk and Trouble Ticket application http://www.houseoffusion.com/banners/view.cfm?bannerid=48 Message: http://www.houseoffusion.com/lists.cfm/link=i:4:214486 Archives: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/threads.cfm/4 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/lists.cfm/link=s:4 Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=89.70.4 Donations & Support: http://www.houseoffusion.com/tiny.cfm/54
